Well I went back to the surgeon and he said because I take over 16 different medicines that would all have to be made into liquids post surgery, he thinks the gastric sleeve is a better option for me. Apparently after the surgery you are only allowed two medicine cups full of water and my medicine would be alot more than that and would fill up my pouch. So I had to call the psychiatrist back and tell her to write the evaluation based on the sleeve not the bypass. Only hold up is Medicare they haven't decided if they want to pay for it yet. They make their decision on October 31st. So until then.
